Lamb Mince Nutrition (Per 100 g cooked)​​

Grilling lamb mince on a Charkii braai allows some fat to drip away during cooking, so the final nutrition can vary depending on the fat percentage of the mince used. A typical cooked lamb mince serving provides high-quality protein, iron, zinc, and B vitamins.
